D.H. Lawrence Works in the Light of Mysticism

تلخیص
FereshtehZangenephour (2000) describes Lawrence’s world of fiction as ‘more or less esoteric, non-theological, and, mystical religion’ (p. 1). Zangenehpour concludes that Lawrence was informed, fascinated, and influenced by the ancient Persian religions and Sufism. In this paper, however, I argue that Lawrence’s interest in what is ancient wisdom brings him in direct or indirect contact with Sufi metaphysics. This particular outlook on the world brings him closer to a Sufi universe in two ways. Firstly, one of the central ideas that the following paper pursues is the importance for Sufi thought of concrete, sensuous embodied selfdiscovery that is made sense of in the relationship with the beloved as can be understood in Lawrence’s sacral treatment of body Secondly, this paper takes a closer look to some of Lawrence’s spiritual works including his Study of Thomas Hardy to show his sustain argument about the existence and influence of transcendental cosmic realities. Moreover, the following discussion also includes a discussion of Lawrence correspondences to reveal his possible engagement and biographical information of the time when Lawrence was writing these spiritual essays and novels mentioned.
